In confronting these terrorists and their supporters with overwhelming strength, awesome courage, and uncompromising resolve, President Bush achieved far more and brought the world closer to peace

Exactly!

Negotiate from a position of strength (power) not weakness.

Saddam tried negotiating from a position of weakness as he was dragged up out of the rathole, and it got him a spot on worldwide TV, being inspected and deloused.

"Negotiate from a position of strength (power) not weakness."

Precisely. The numbskulls on the left are so confused--and so bogged down in the quagmire of decadence known by the misnomer of "Liberalism"--that they cannot understand this. Some of these klunks are goofy enough to recommend weakening the U.S. so that no nation will be significantly more powerful than any other. Fortunately, the Americans of the Heartland control the United States, and such lunatics can do little more than rave semicoherently and gnash their teeth in frustration. We must keep it that way.

But it's arrogant to negotiate from a position of weakness. We should just bow to the French and Kofi Annan and beg mercy from every thug who gets control of a country.

Then people throughout the world would love us and they would treat us with love and respect.

SARCASM (for the sarcasm challenged)
